Masso Antico is the essence of Salento in a glass. Fine wines born from withered grapes and crafted with passion, following ancient Apulian tradition. A unique sensory experience that celebrates the land.
In the heart of Salento, Masso Antico preserves the tradition of Apulian winemaking. The Alberello Pugliese, an ancient cultivation method, yields excellent quality grapes that are withered on the vine and refined in barrels. Passionate winemakers reinterpret history into eclectic wines, capable of expressing the colors and flavors of this generous land.

Harvest takes place in early September. After pressing, 50% of the juice ferments in steel at a temperature of 18 degrees, while the remainder ferments in contact with wood. After 3 months of aging on the lees, the wine is prepared for bottling.
Straw-yellow color; on the nose, there are notes of white-fleshed fruits like apple and pear, accompanied by floral hints of broom. On the palate, it presents a good structure and breadth, leaving a natural minerality after drinking.
